I don't know if everyone has seen this, so I thought it was worth sending
out. As you may or may not know I am on the COMMON Board of Directors, so I
can have a slight bias in that I think this is a great opportunity to get
some fantastic education, and save some money if you register early. It
will be COMMON's 50th Anniversary celebration, and I know they are planning
some interesting events to celebrate that. COMMON does provide a great
networking opportunity for everyone in the virtual community to get
together, and I know quite a few of us who attend the conference as either
attendees or speakers are on the list. It's been a pleasure over the years
associating the email addresses from midrange-L with the actual people. So,
I hope to see you there.
